Council adopts ordinance limiting signs in rights-of-way after debate on enforcement
Summary
The Bristow City Council on Jan. 5 adopted Ordinance #204-010526 amending Section 18-74 to regulate signs in rights-of-way; the measure passed despite one No vote and questions about enforcement and abatement procedures.
The Bristow City Council voted Jan. 5 to adopt an ordinance amending Chapter 18, Section 18-74, restricting signs in rights-of-way and public utility easements. The motion to adopt (moved by Joe Church, seconded by Jeff Roberts) passed with Councilmember Kevin Deshazo voting No; the ordinance is recorded as Ordinance #204-010526.
Deshazo pressed the council to delay action while concerns about enforcement and consequences for noncompliance were resolved. Attorney Beth Anne Childs responded that violations could be addressed “under the Abatement process.” The council chose to proceed with the ordinance while retaining abatement as a potential enforcement tool. The record does not show additional implementation details or a separate enforcement schedule.
